Delete an administrative topic definition

We can use the MQSC command DELETE TOPIC to delete an administrative topic.

For example:
DELETE TOPIC(ORANGE.TOPIC)
Applications will no longer be able to open the topic for publication or make new subscriptions using the object name, ORANGE.TOPIC. Publishing applications that have the topic open are able to continue publishing the resolved topic string. Any subscriptions already made to this topic continue receiving publications after the topic has been deleted.

Applications that are not referencing this topic object but are using the resolved topic string that this topic object represented, 'ORANGE' in this example, continue to work. In this case they inherit the properties from a topic object higher in the topic tree. For more information, see Topic trees.
